I'm glad to hear yours are sitting doing nothing faeden. Mine are the same. They have the green leaves they came with but nothing else yet. I check them every day. I have them on my patio and I wondered if I should put the pot out so it might possibly get rained on.
Repotted Haemanthus albiflos.....
Mine don't start doing much until about October. If it doesn't rain by mid-October I'll water them. That's about the only time I do water them - they get nothing but rainwater the rest of the year. If yours were to get watered now I don't think it'd hurt them.
Good to know... I repotted all of mine in a larger pot and suspect that will delay any blooms.
Sometimes I think 'a watched pot never blooms'.
Well, if they don't bloom this year they certainly should next year. Mine are quite neglected and most bloom reliably.
I have been low dose feeding mine with a bloom formula all summer along with some all purpose 10-15-10. We had a storm last week that gave us about 0.5" and a 20F drop in temp. Voila, bloom. Picture later.
KEWL!
Well the flower is only nickle sized. Maybe with more time, there will be a bigger spike and flower?
Maybe it just wanted to get you ready for the big show later in the fall. LOL!!
LOL!! That certainly is a tiny little thing, isn't it? As I said earlier, hopefully you'll get bigger and better flowers later in the fall.
When mine bloomed it was slow to open. Yours should open more.
I just love the bloom on that. May be my next plant. Can always find room for just one more.
